opening in a halt-lOW rounding shape
over a dainty Russian chemisette of
cream tinted crepe lisse. A pretty way
of arranging striped gauze skirt is that

UNDERWEAR.
Among the attractive cOmmon-sense
luxuries in underwear are night dresses
cut both in loose saCQue and Mother
Hubbard style made Of sheerest yelling
fabrics and also OF American washing
surah. Those made OF the silk have not
the least garniture upon them, except a
very narrow lace edging upon the silk
frills about The neck and Sleeve-bands.
They are simply hemmed, and fasten
with pearl buttons. 1t is claimed by
those who have worn the gowns of veil
ing that they are warmer in winter and
cooler in summer than fine muslin. These
night-dresSes are edged on neck and
wrists and down one side Of the front
with pretty, narrow pattern in wool
lace, or with a slightly gathered friIl of
TOrchon lace of rest quality. Upon
some of the more elaborate gowns are set
bands of the goods, embroidered in white
silk briar-st;tchin@, or else herring
boned in japanese floss. The gowns
wash excellently when made of the best
fabrics, and lastly, they are highly ap-
proved by all physicians.

cloud like gown was even more beautiful

slip of silk or satin. The effect of the
bridal dress entire was greatly enhanced
by a superb set of diamonds worn by the
bride, consisting of necklace, hair orna-
ments and hoop bracelets.
THE "DIANA" CoIFFURE.
The latest styles of dressing the hair
are much less exaggerated than at any
one time they threatened TO become
High structures of puffs and curls and
aigrettes have been replaced by much
simpler and less elevated modes of ar
rangement, though in the same style.
The "Disna" couture, formed by bring
ing the back hair forward and turning it
over to form single roll at the top of the
mead, is new and very graceful.
